Here is your reminder to get your 'Mini Blocks' Starter Pack, so you too can play with a block to create your own unique wardrobe 🙌

Sylvie has excelled herself and had some real fun with pattern cutting. The gathering at the bust and matching it with the middle section with the dart closed 🙌 and the back seam in the bodice! Just fabulous. Very proud of you Sylvie 🌟

I am on a mission to inspire you all to make clothes that FIT!

Meet lovely Delyth 💖

Delyth attended one of the Ash Farm courses where we created a well fitted toile using my book, Dressmaking: The Easy Guide. Then we adapted the block to make her first dress.

Delyth then went home and made a beautiful 'book' dress which she wore to her job in the library. Amazing 🙌 Well done Delyth.

❌The bad news is all of my current courses are FULL

✅ The good news is the Online Course is the perfect way to work through the book, with me holding your hand throughout.

Do you know the best thing about 'Dressmaking: The Easy Guide'?

Once you perfect your block, the rest is easy and quick! Draft a few simple sleeves, and then swap them around on different bodices.

The fit is never an issue as you just mix and match your design features.

Here I have chosen my capped sleeve to go with my jersey t-shirt dress. Easy peasy!!

Watch your wardrobe grow but most importantly, the fit is consistent and sewing up is straight forward.

Don't forget, the Online Course will hand hold you through the entire process. Use Helen20 for 20% off. £79.20 for lifetime access.

Honest post..I am absolutely knackered!!

Running a business with two young boys is currently feeling a bit impossible. I'm managing to run my courses (which are all sold out again!) but not managing much in between.

Social media is such a mountain to climb these days, and when you stop posting, it all goes very quiet.

For various reasons, I've not had my usual time in the studio. When I do get in there, I have such a little amount of time, so I'm not getting much done. That's ok. I'll get back in there soon.

So, whilst I try to recharge my battery, please know I am here but just a little quiet whilst I focus on being mummy.

My website is always open, the online course has lifetime access and my YouTube channel has some lovely videos.

Thank you all for your continued support 💗

14 years ago...💖

My fabulous friend Lou made the call and we got dress designing. I had actually gone travelling the World but promised I would make her dress on my return. 🌍

This was one of my first wedding dresses and I adored everything about doing it for Lou. It was a really special time. 💖

The back had a detachable train which became my signature feature over the years.

The wedding was just glorious in the French sunshine ☀️ Very happy memories of the most fun wedding I have ever attended!!

Happy anniversary Lou and Rob 💗
